Chapter 258 The Anbu changes to the Finance Ministry, will you change?
This is obviously his excuse.
Because in a short period of time, Konoha cannot set up any new department.
After all, Konoha is still at war, and this war has lasted for nearly three years. Konoha does not have more spare energy to set up any new department.
The high-level meeting is only the first step.
Even if the high-level meeting is passed, the following steps will not be so easy to take.
A new department means that a lot of money will be spent. At present, the village’s finances are a bit tight, and it is still unknown how much money can be squeezed in.
Secondly, there is the problem of manpower.
Setting up a new department can’t always be an empty shell.
In the case of war, Konoha is not vulnerable, and it needs to support the front line at any time. At this juncture, how to draw people to the new department?
Which people to draw, these are all problems.
First of all, exclude Ino-Shika-Chou. Even if Ino-Shika-Chou does not stand on Tsunade’s side, it is impossible for him to join some shady departments.
Secondly, the Uchiha and Hyuga families will be excluded.
Hinata can't possibly get involved in such a matter, Uchiha.........
Not to mention that Uchiha doesn't want to, even if he does, Shimura Danzo may not want their people.
If all the major families of Konoha are excluded, there will be fewer targets to choose from.
Choose from civilian ninjas?
I'm afraid there won't be many suitable people to choose from, unless ninjas from families like Sarutobi and Shimura are pulled in.
It's troublesome.
The more the Third Hokage thinks about it, the more headache he has.
But he has to do it.
So a high-level meeting about the new department was held in the Hokage's office.
Not many people attended the meeting.
The two advisors of the Elders' Council, including Shizuichi, plus the Third Hokage, a total of four people.
In fact, the person who should have attended the meeting was Tsunade, but unfortunately, when Shizuichi was in the village, Tsunade directly left the Anbu to him and squatted on duty in the hospital all day.
So Shizuichi could only represent the Anbu to attend this meeting.
Seeing Jingyi coming on behalf of the Anbu, the three people in the Hokage's office had no objection, but Utane Kimiharu looked at Jingyi with a bit of unkindness.
After all, she was badly cheated in the previous mission.
If Jingyi hadn't deliberately provoked her, she wouldn't have agreed to carry out any revenge mission, but she couldn't control her temper and got herself into trouble.
Walking into the Hokage's office, Jingyi sat casually on the sofa. Like Tsunade, Jingyi also liked to sit on the sofa, not a hard chair.
"Is there anything important in the village that requires a high-level meeting?"
Jingyi didn't know why the Third Hokage asked him to come here.
Mitomon En and Utane Kimiharu didn't know the inside story either, and they looked at the Third Hokage without making an appointment.
The Third Hokage waved his hand to indicate that they didn't have to worry. After the Hokage's guards poured the hot tea and went to close the door, the Third Hokage took the pipe out of his mouth.
As he got older and the pressure from work gradually increased, the Third Hokage became more and more addicted to smoking.
He used to smoke occasionally, but now he almost never puts down his pipe.
"Today I asked you to come here to hold a high-level meeting for one thing."
After making an opening statement, the Third Hokage paused for a few seconds and then said:
"Since the Anbu was divided, I found that there are some things that are not too important and need to be dealt with immediately. It is too troublesome to hand them over to the Anbu, so I want to set up a new department."
"Hiruzen, do you want to set up a second Anbu?"
Mitomon En frowned.
He didn't like the Third Hokage doing this.
There is already an Anbu in the village, why set up a similar department? Isn't this taking off your pants to fart?
Utane Haru couldn't understand what the Third Hokage was thinking.
Only Jingyi guessed that the so-called new department of the Third Hokage should be the root formed for Shimura Danzo!
"That's right, because the village already has an Anbu." Jingyi was the first to state his position.
The establishment of the Root department actually has little impact on the Anbu. As long as the people of the Root do not do things under the banner of the Anbu and do not wear the equipment of the Anbu to cause trouble, there is not much connection between the two.
But as a member of the Anbu, Jingyi must represent the attitude of the Anbu.
With the Anbu, you still want to establish a similar department?
Impossible!
The Anbu does not agree.
"Hokage, you promised not to weaken any rights of the Anbu."
After refusing, Jingyi did not forget to remind the Third Hokage not to make trouble. No matter whether you want to establish the Root or not, the privileges of the Anbu cannot be touched.
Are you going to take action against the Anbu?
Mitomon En was slightly startled. This is not a good sign.
Uta-ne Haru is eager to try. She wants the Third Hokage to take action against the Anbu and cut off the privileges of the Anbu as soon as possible.
If this department is not under control, it will be too disgusting.
They can walk around in front of you for no reason and tell you openly that they are patrolling and protecting you, not monitoring you.
Damn, this is not considered monitoring?
"The rights of the Anbu will not be affected in any way."
The Third Hokage quickly assured:
"I will not set up a second Anbu department. According to your expectation, this new department is actually to expand the Hokage Guard and form a unique department that specifically obeys the command of the Hokage. This department will not affect the operation of other departments and will only hide in the dark."
"That's right."
No matter what the Third Hokage says, Jingyi's principle is to be right.
No matter whether you are the root or the boss, the attitude of the Anbu is right.
"If the Hokage feels that the Anbu is out of control, you can negotiate with Tsunade and return the Anbu to the Hokage's office. The Hokage doesn't need to go through so much trouble."
"The Anbu will be returned and the Ministry of Finance will be assigned to it. No one will suffer."
The limit is one for one, will you change it?
As long as you are willing, you are willing.
"........"
What the hell is the exchange! !
The Third Hokage's face was black. The Anbu was assigned to it, but it was restricted and inconvenient to do things. If the Ministry of Finance was assigned to it, his neck would be completely strangled.
No matter how important the Anbu is, it can't be compared with the Ministry of Finance.
You know how to refuse.
Mitomon Yan looked at the Third Hokage with sympathy.
He was killed.
What do you mean by expanding the Hokage Guard? Isn't it just another kind of Anbu? It's impossible for Hyuga Shizuka, who represents the Anbu, to agree.
If you really want to form one, we have no objection. Just hand it over to the Ministry of Finance. It's a very simple matter.
